George Lucas And Kathleen Kennedy Comment On Passing Of Sir Christopher Lee

Both George Lucas and Kathleen Kennedy have commented on the sad passing of Sir Christopher Lee who died last Sunday age 93.

“Christopher was a great British actor of the old school. A true link to cinema’s past and a real gentleman. We will miss him.”

George Lucas

“Christopher brought a grace and gravitas to the many roles he’s played over a rich and expansive career. His performance as Count Dooku in Episodes II and III remains a highlight of the Star Wars saga, and we have been so privileged and honored to count him among our family. Christopher was a gentle soul and deeply adored by fans, and we will miss him dearly.”
